Topsy Turvy

Life has been a tad crazy lately so I have not been around much but I have lots to share so bare with the longish post! Ha!!  First, Easter!  It started out as a great day with church, lunch and an egg hunt but went downhill when the Knight decided to be a bone head!  I won't go into detail let's just say he was not being a good boy and leave it at that!  This not being a good boy led to a wasted Monday that included a 6 hour round trip to Marion, IL (for nothing but a 4 1/2 hour time drain)!  We got home at midnight!  Anyhoo, lots of photo fun including pictures in the park which can be seen here!

Here is the Diva in her Easter best!!  The whole outfit was a steal!!  The dress was from Walmart, the sweater from a resale shop and the hat was from the Dollar Tree ( I made the flower)!  She looked adorable!!

After lunch, we hunted eggs left by the elusive Easter bunny!  Let me tell you there was waaaaaay tooooooo much chocolate left at our house!  So if your kid got cheated in the candy department, we will share!!!  Ha!  Ha!!

It was so windy that during the course of the hunt, the Diva lost her hat but she was too busy hunting goodies to notice!

By the end of the day, she was so hopped up on candy that she was running and jumping like a mad woman!!  I think I see a career in the WNBA for this one!!

I pray you all had a great Easter!

Just a Preview!

For more from this shoot you can go here! Have a happy Easter!!

Goodbye March! Hello April!

Where in the world is time flying off to?  I am not sure, but I am thankful for this wonderful, sunny, warm weather that we are enjoying!!  The house is open and the breeze is blowing and I am in absolute heaven!!  I just love the renewal that spring brings to us every year!!  It makes me hopeful and excited for the things yet to come!!

So we are in the middle of Easter week and I am looking forward to many things!  I love that this season brings new life to everything that we see!  I was raised Catholic and am now a Christian so this time of year is very special to me!

So what is in store for me?  Well, life has been crazy and my marriage is being tested to the max so I am praying that things will settle down and the Knight will get a clue before it is too late because I am teetering on the edge of too late!  It really is sad but life has to go on no matter what or who is in your life in any given season!

Lots of photography on the horizon will keep my business rolling forward in the right direction and I pray that one day I will be able to support my kids doing what I love (should the need arise)!  The Diva will be starting preschool in the fall which is so hard to imagine!  It seems like just yesterday that she was crawling around and drooling all over everything!  Ha!  The Moody Teen will be 18 and a senior this fall so he will soon be striking out on his own to make his way in life!  Wasn't he just the Diva's age??

I am re-posting this photo because it is one of my favorite flower photos that I have ever taken!  I just love spring!  Oh, I think I said that already!  LOL!
